If you raise or have raised chickens for the freezer what kind do you prefer and why? I prefer Cornish crosses. Red rangers are good too.

To me it is some of the cheapest ways to eat around. Whole chicken pieces one meal. Tear off the rest of the meat and you have enough for sandwiches or tacos. Use the remaining scraps on top of a salad the next day.

There's a big difference between eating healthy foods and eating healthy. A responsible is diet is mandatory for your health.skyhightree1":1cvgh594 said:bird dog":1cvgh594 said:When you can buy a cooked rotisserie chicken at Sam's warehouse for 5 or 6 bucks, I don't know why anybody would raise chickens for meat.

Some people prefer a healthier route and don't mind the extra effort/money. I prefer to know whats going in my food and raising my own as much as possible. If sams and walmart is great to you that's good but you probably never ate many fresh chickens right off the farm you raised. You are looking at savings of money and getting full... I am not penny pinching or shying away from work and am looking for quality.

Could've took the three of them and fed 200 people. Put a peice in your mouth the size of marble and it would grow to the size of a softball. I'd imagine whip leather would be tender up beside them.
Fried or BBQd.What kind of chickens?
